Description
No description was provided for this meeting.
If this is YOUR meeting, an easy way to fix this is to add a description to your video, wherever mtngs.io found it (probably YouTube).
A
A
She
came
to
the
top
of
the
list
just
because
of
her
impressive
resume,
but
also
because
she's,
a
really
good
speaker
and
a
really
nice
person,
and
we
love
to
have
her
here
so
she's
actually
been
working
for
it
says
26
years.
But
I
think
that
really
is
just
six
years,
because
there's
no
way
it's
26
years
in
public
and
academic
libraries
and
she's,
the
director
of
library,
services
for
the
city
of
northwestern
and
I'm
reading
off.
My
notes,
because
I
know
this
stuff.
A
But
I
don't
trust
myself
and
before
that
she
was
director
of
decatur
public
library,
which
was
awarded
the
runner-up
for
the
best
small
library
in
america
when
she
was
there
and
she's
also
worked
at
flower,
mound
public
university
of
north
texas,
where
she
got
her
master's
degree
in
library,
information,
science
and
a
master's
degree
in
english.
So
she
is
a
librarian
through
and
through
folks,
and
she
is
currently
the
president
of
the
public
library
administrators
of
north
texas,
which
is
a
group
of
library
directors.
A
I
think
they're
80
80
members
now
across
north
texas,
and
she
was
most
recently
in
2019
2020,
the
president
of
tla,
which
is
the
texas
library
association
and
she
she
led
us
through
kind
of
the
pandemic
and
really
helped
pull
things
off
there.
So
I
just
want
to
thank
her
for
that
and
without
any
further
ado
I'll.
Let
her
come
up
and
start
talking.
So
thank
you.
I
appreciate
it.
B
B
How
of
you
are
the
system
administrators
for
your
profile?
B
B
A
B
Open
doors,
but
the
other
frustration
that
I
had
signed
before
we
migrated
over
to
open
source
system
was,
I
was
trying
to
run
reports
to
get
a
feel
for
it
and
was
having
some
frustration
and
some
difficulties
with
that
that
I
wanted
out
of
the
system-
and
I
thought
oh
wait.
I
paid
them
our
budget,
I'm
going
to
call
them
and
they
will
help
me
logical
assumptions
right.
B
B
So
I
was
frustrated
by
a.
I
was
spending
all
this
money
right
and
me
when
I
needed
this
system
to
do
something
to
which
to
me
seemed
like
a
basic
function
of
an
ios.
They
couldn't
do
it
and
there
was
no
way
for
me
to
make
that
happen.
So
I
I
was
really
really
frustrated
with
the
functionality
as
well.
B
B
B
So
that's
the
cool
thing
about
using
open
source
is
that
there
isn't
anyone
financially
interested
in
whether
or
not
you're
successful
you
are
responsible
for
whether
or
not
your
ils
is
successful
and
guess
what?
If
you
can't
do
it
with
the
code
access?
There
is
a
whole
community
of
people
to
support
you
and
to
help
you,
because
that's
what
libraries
do
they
share?
B
So,
if
you're
waiting
with
a
commercial
vendor
to
have
your
development
come
into
place,
it
could
never
happen.
It's
a
possibility.
It
could
never
happen
if
you're,
the
only
library
that
needs
this
thing.
You
need
information
about
your
community
and
how
they're
using
your
system
but
you're
the
only
library,
because
every
community
is
unique.
Then
it
may
never
happen.
B
So
open
source
exerts
competitive
pressures,
both
in
cost
right
and
an
innovation,
and
so
I
think
that
that's
really
critical.
B
B
B
B
One
of
the
things
that
I
love
about
open
source
and
I'm
really
fortunate
and
I'm
going
to
call
someone
out.
We
have
michael
at
my
library,
so
sometimes
I
can
make
this
decision
and
like
10
minutes
later
he's
like
oh
yeah.
It's
done
so
the
ability
to
make
a
decision
to
serve
your
community
on
the
spot
in
that
moment
and
to
have
it
happen.
That
quickly
is
obviously
that
rapid
development
is
obviously
an
advantage,
and
I
think
that
the
last
18
months
have
shown
us
more
than
ever
how
critical?
B
That
is,
how
critical
rapid
development
on
the
spot
changes
to
our
ilses.
So
I'm
going
to
share
a
few
things
that
we
did
at
northwestern
television.
If
your
library
did
these
things
as
well,
just
raise
your
hand,
and
I
bet
we're
going
to
be
hands
up
everywhere.
Did
you
have
to
change
library,
closure
dates?
B
B
B
Did
it
allow
you
to
do
it
rapidly
right?
So
when
I
was
thinking
about
that
about
how
quick
our
response
was,
I
thought
well,
I
wonder
how
it
was
with
the
commercial
vendor.
It's
been
a
it's
been
a
long
time
since
I've
worked
with
commercial
vendor,
and
I
saw
online
that
an
article
that
stated
and
I'm
going
to
read
this
because
I
think
it's
really
interesting,
so
I'm
going
to
read
directly
from
it.
B
So
it
says
that
during
the
pandemic,
almost
all
almost
all
commercial
ils
vendors
provided
support,
especially
through
rapid
development
or
implementation
of
functionality,
that
supported
newly
instituted,
workflows
such
as
online
selection
and
checkout,
and
curbside
pickup
and
abrupt
building
closures
prompted
a
need
to
update
policy
calendars,
controlling
due
dates
and
notices,
and
they
gave
a
couple
of
specific
examples.
For
example,
biblionics
during
the
pandemic
went
to
charging
their
users
a
usage
fee
instead
of
like
a
standard
flat
rate.
B
B
I
bet
the
second,
but
it's
that
it's
not
imp
politically
incorrect
to
dump
this
these
three
services.
They
are
gonna
dump
them,
and
I
also
thought
really
thought
my
big
thought
was:
why
does
it
take
a
global
emergency
for
a
commercial
ils
to
properly
support
the
libraries
that
are
paying
them
exorbitant
support
fees?
B
B
It
gives
us
the
control,
so
I'm
going
to
step
aside
from
the
reason
about
why
open
source
matters
in
the
general
sense
for
this
moment
to
talk
about
what
I
know
about
cohan
open
source
for
libraries
for
the
last
few
years.
It's
just
going
to
be
a
really
quick
overview,
but
we
all
know
that
coho
was
the
first
free
and
open
source
ios
and
the
most
most
implemented
worldwide
and
when
they
started
in
2001,
they
had
a
single
library
and
right
now
they
have
over
1500.
Libraries
is
what
I
was
able
to
research.
A
B
That's
incorrect
and
also
they
went
from
2009
to
2019.
They
went
from
two
employees
to
25
employees.
So
what
do
these
sets
of
numbers?
Tell
you
there's
a
growing
demand
from
libraries
to
have
that
control
back
to
better
serve
their
citizens,
and
that's
reflected
not
only
in
coho's
growth,
but
in
the
fact
that
they
laid
the
foundation
for
so
many
other
open
source
ils
systems.
They
have
now
evergreen
opals,
open,
biblio
and
video
pbm
next
gen
library
and
bibliocue
right.
So
there
are
options
that
we
didn't
have
10
years
ago
and
then
from
there.
B
We
also
started
to
see
that
as
libraries
adopted,
open
source
for
the
ils
other
platforms
that
we
use
for
services
started
becoming
available
and
we
started
to
see
things
like
libkey,
which
is
the
coho
open
source,
web
management
and
print
management
and
coral,
which
is
an
open
source,
electronic
resource
management,
product
and
omeka,
which
is
a
free
database
that
lets
you,
create
online
collections
and
do
exhibits
and
viewfind
a
neat
line
and
a
lot
of
libraries
are
now
moving
to
ubuntu
linux
distributions
for
the
public,
pcs,
and
here
in
texas.
B
B
B
We
share?
We
share
collections.
We
share
knowledge.
We
share
space,
we
share
everything
that
we
have
available
in
our
libraries,
whether
it's
virtual
or
in
person.
B
For
example,
if
you
host
your
own
ils
and
you
are
supporting
it
and
taking
care
of
it
yourself,
are
you
not,
therefore
adding
an
extra
level
of
security
and
privacy
and
confidentiality
for
your
patrons?
Probably
so,
and
what
is
open
source
if
not
democratized
access
to
software?
B
B
The
first
one
is
the
examples
I
started
with
my
small
rule
library
indicator
where
I
really
couldn't
afford
that
ils
that
we
were
paying
for
it
was
taking
money
away
from
serving
my
community
and
it
was
a
poor
community
and
it
needed
services.
It
didn't
need
20
of
my
budget
to
be
going
out
the
window
for
an
ils,
so
the
first
way
is
that
open
source
makes
a
really
high
quality,
functional
ils
available
to
small
and
rural
libraries
that
have
little
to
no
budget.
B
B
At
my
library,
for
the
last
few
months,
we've
been
talking
about
a
project
that
we
want
to
do
to
reach
underserved
areas
of
our
community.
We
want
to
put
holds
lockers
and
book
drops.
That
was
our
original
plan
and
we
were
going
to
put
them.
We've
identified
some
parks
that
were
in
underserved
parts
of
our
community
and
we
had
identified
a
potential
section,
9
apartment
complex,
and
so
we
were,
you
know,
packed
up
about
this
we're
going
to
apply
for
some
grant
money.
B
We
were
going
to
reach
the
underserved
and
then,
as
we
started,
to
move
forward
with
that.
I
we
have
an
edi
work
group
within
my
library,
and
our
edi
work
group
did
a
virtual
meeting
with
sonia
irving,
who
is
equity
and
inclusion
manager
for
multnomah
county
libraries.
B
And
when
you
talk
about
edi
and
libraries,
they
are
well
ahead
of
the
curve.
So
we
wanted
to
listen
to
her
and
to
find
out
what
we
could
do
to
better
serve.
Not
only
our
staff
but
our
community
ensuring
equitable
access
and
one
of
the
things
that
she
mentioned
was
that
when
you
talk
about
serving
underserved
populations,
one
of
the
things
we
often
neglect
is
the
fact
that
they
don't
have
access
to
technology
or
if
they're,
not
library,
users,
they
don't
know
how
to
use
library
technology
right.
B
So
then
I
thought
oh,
we're
going
to
put
holes
lockers
and
book
drops
in
the
parks
and
the
apartment
complex,
but
the
people
living
there
probably
haven't
used
the
library,
and
this
is
what
they
would
see
if
they
did
have
access
to
technology.
Now
I
love
our
interface,
it's
great.
If
you
are,
if
you
are
used
to
using
a
library,
this
makes
sense
to
you
there's
a
book
river.
What
is
this?
What
is
this
right
here
in
the
middle
new
books
right,
we
have
drop
downs
on
the
side
for
special
collections.
B
After
doing
a
little
bit
of
research,
what
we
realize
is
that
we're
going
to
include
a
very,
very
basic
interface
kiosk
right
next
to
the
whole
blockers
and
the
book
drop.
And
it's
just
going
to
say
what
are
you
looking
for
and
then,
as
you
get
results,
it's
going
to
have
information
that
guides
you
through
how
to
place
a
hole
so
that
we.
A
B
You
are
probably
all
aware
of
the
expression.
That's
when
you
talk
about
open
source.
They
say
it's
open
and
free
and
a
lot
of
times,
particularly
if
you've
not
heard
that
expression,
you
would
assume
free
means
as
in
cost
it's
open
and
you
don't
pay
for
it.
Well,
that
is
true,
but
what
free
means
in
this
instance
is
free.
Like
liberty
like
it
needs
to
be
free
where
people
can
get
to
it.
Doesn't
that
sound
a
lot
like
intellectual
freedom?
B
When
we
say
no
one
will
decide
who
reads
what
and
you
can
read,
watch
listen
to
whatever
you
want
from
my
library
without
us
intervening,
and
then
you
can
do
with
that
information
and
that
knowledge,
whatever
you
choose
to
do
right.
That
is
freedom.
Well,
it
applies
to
software
as
well,
and
what
they
talk
about
when
they
talk
about
software
being
free
are
the
four
essential
freedoms
which
are
the
freedom
to
run
the
program.
As
you
want
the
freedom
to
study,
how
the
program
works
and
change
it.
B
B
B
B
B
B
You
just
modify
the
existing
and
it
becomes
the
new.
So
it's
sustainable.
It's
also
economically
sustainable,
because
if
you
have
an
entry
cost
at
all,
it's
a
pretty
low
one
right,
there's
a
there's
a
little
bit
of
a
cost
to
get
in.
If
you
need
a
contractor
to
help
you,
but
once
you're
in
you're,
in
if
you've
ever
worked
with
a
commercial
vendor
a
lot
of
times,
they're
going
to
have
licensing
and
restrictions.
B
And
so
with
open
source
it
grows
with
you
organically
there's,
no
additional
license,
there's
nothing
else.
You
have
to
purchase
it
just
grows
with
you,
and
so
doesn't
that
make
it
sustainable
in
some
sense
because
they
can
be
an
open
source
product
can
be
modified
to
meet
your
changing
community.
B
B
I'm
sure
that
everyone
in
this
room
knew
all
of
this.
Intellectually.
Before
I
started
to
talk
about
it
today,
it's
not
new
right,
but
I
felt
like
it
was
worth
readdressing
and
thinking
about,
and
I'd
like
for
you
guys
to
think
about
it
over
the
course
of
the
conference
and
when
you
get
back
home
and
it's
because
I
want
to
give
you
some
challenges
that
I've
been
giving
myself
lately.
B
So
when
you
get
back
home
to
your
libraries,
call
up
your
neighboring
libraries
and
say
hey,
let
me
tell
you
about
this
great
ils
we
have
and
how
well
it's
been
working
for
us.
Do
you
want
to
have
a
demo?
My
staff
would
be
happy
to
show
you
the
back
end
the
front
end
whatever
you
need.
You
know
how
much
we're
having
to
pay
for
support.
How
much
do
you
pay?
Maybe
we
should
have
a
partnership
like
the
me.
The
recent
metro
share
that
started
in
north
texas.
B
B
B
B
Do
you
pay
for
your
collection
management
systems
and
I'm
going
to
give
you
a
really
quick
example
of
moving
away
from
that
we
pay
a
relatively
high
cost
for
a
collection
management
software
product
and
next
year
is
our
last
year
and
we're
going
to
not
renew
our
contract
because
michael
was
able
to
duplicate
the
super
majority
of
every
report
we
get
from
them
using
coho,
and
now
we're
going
to
have
twelve
thousand
dollars
to
put
back
into
our
budget
for
other
things.
B
B
Oh,
my
last
one
and
identify
ways
to
use
open
source
to
better
serve
your
communities,
especially
your
underserved
communities.
It
will
do
what
you
want
it
to
do.
You
have
that
control
so
go
and
identify
the
needs
of
your
underserved
populations
and
think
about
how
you
can
use
coho
to
bridge
that
divide.
